2) In the figure below, light initially polarized parallel to the Eait is sent into a system of three polarizing sheets whose polarizing directions make angles of 0, - 0, - 6 - 53.1° with the direction of the y axis. (a) What percentage of the initial intensity is transmitted by the system? (Hint: Be careful with the angles - the figure below defines cach angle.)
